520    "Desegregation has failed. Schools filled with black and 
       brown students have become plantations of social control, 
       where the policing of behavior trumps the expanding of 
       minds. Radical teachers and organizers in American public 
       schools must help young people fashion an insurgency. That
       means, at the very least, seeing each student's rebellion 
       not as violation, but as communication. Jay Gillen writes 
       with passion and compassion about the daily lives of poor 
       students trapped in institutions that dismiss and degrade 
       them. In the spirit of Paulo Freire, and using the 
       historical models of slave rebellions and Civil Rights 
       struggles as guides, Gillen explains what sort of 
       insurgency is needed and how to create it: the tools and 
       techniques required to build social, intellectual, and 
       political power."--Page [4] of cover.
